    You can have all the excuses you like me old tater but you'll still get done for it. I used a company on eBay for a number plate and they definately supplied the types of plate you mentioned. I'll try and find their details after and let you know.

    I believe you can get still get plates in Scotland without all this I.D, bring your grandparents rubbish,so you should be able to get them done if you know any nice people living Scotland.
    Although i may be wrong as its been a while since i asked about getting some made.

    ID... what?
    Over here you just walk into any printing place, say "Can you make plates for ABC 123 please", and they say "Yep, are you 100% sure thats the right number as you're paying for it still if its wrong!"

    You need to show by law your V5 and any other form of ID like D/L or passport in England. Not sure about Scotland tho.

    Ahaa right, didn't realise that. Spose it makes it (slightly) easier to stop fraud.
